Roosevelt was a bit too open about the general concept of the atomic bomb. Stalin took in everything he heard and soon Russia or the Soviet Union had nuclear weapons also, making the US and the Soviet Union the two big world superpowers, with stockpiles of nuclear weapons that could destroy the Earth. I'm sure the Soviet Union believed at the time that since they were developing their own nuclear weapons, they weren't all that alarmed. To this day, after the Soviet Union crumbled, no one knows where some warheads have gone. It was easy for a terrorist to snatch a nuclear bomb or two from the unguarded Soviet stockpiles abandoned when the Soviet Union became no more.
